The Girls 1st Garage Sale Experience


The girls take a little break from playing to eat lunch and watch "Finding Nemo"

Baylee gets a sweet tooth for the Pink Ribbon shaped sugar cookies!

Amelia is also very happy she is eating a sugar cookie! The girls were really good at the garage sale considering it was sooooo hot outside. They did better than their Mommy who felt she was melting!

Before Heading to Bed, Mommy Pulls Out Some New Toys


Yeah, mommy pulled out some new toys out of the closet, Little People! The girls loved them. As you can see we are a little tired and it is almost time for bed. Daddy has been working at the MOA to earn some extra money, so Mommy has been single Mommy for the third day in a row by the time she decided to pull out some new toys! It was hard on Daddy because he didn't get to see the girls, they were in bed when he left for work each day and sleeping when he finally got home at 11pm.

Amelia is trying to convince me that she didn't just steal her sister's toy! Look at that face!

Baylee says "Hey Mommy, Amelia stole my toy!" Mommy is sure Baylee stole Amelia's toy not 10 minutes before this incident!

Amelia takes it in hand and just crawls over Baylee to get to the toys!

Our Little Climber and Little Talker

Sorry about the fuzzy photo, it was taken quickly from my iphone. Well, Miss Baylee thought it would be cool to climb up on Grandma's end table. The funny thing was that I was sitting on the end of the couch right next to it and Grandma as you can see was in the chair on the other side. She likes to climb on everything! The list includes the couch, chairs, Lego table, the baby gate and anything she can reach. She is so proud of herself, she looks down at Amelia and Amelia laughs at her. We are definitely in for it.
Not to be overlooked, here is a fuzzy photo of Amelia before bedtime, as you can see her pony was taken out and she has some interesting hair. She is our little talker, she copies sounds and some words like the ever popular "dada" (which mommy feels is unfair), she has said "mama" in the car a couple times, "baba", "bye", "bay" (which is for her favorite baby), "hi", and will mimic other words we say, we have to be careful :)
The two of them walk all the time now, but refuse to walk with shoes on! They take after their mommy on that. They like to give kisses and blow kisses a lot. They have really grown up fast, at least mommy and daddy think so. More photos to come when mommy gets more time to do extra stuff instead of organizing the house. We finally purchased the girls new car seats. We were able to get $75 off, no sales tax and free shipping from hipmonkey.com. We are in need of them since the car seats we have don't fit 3 in a row but are good for extras. We hope they come soon, they are too big for the baby carriers!

Level 2 Ultrasound with Baby C

We went for the ultrasound on baby C. Let's just say the baby kept it's back to us the entire time. Nice view of the spine :) After an hour and a half and mommy moving all over to get the baby to turn, the tech gave up. She was able to see almost all, however she didn't get to see all 4 chambers in the heart, we are hoping it was only because of the baby's position. However, we have to go back in on September 14th when the baby is at 24 weeks to have an Echo Ultrasound of the heart. This is to rule out a heart defect, we pray all is well! We are thinking positive and blaming it on the stubborn genes the poor baby has inherited from it's mom and dad, because he/she wouldn't wake up and move. But the good thing is the baby's heartbeat was a strong 140 and Mommy's cervix is at a 5 and completely closed!!! This made Mommy very, very happy! Daddy is working 2 jobs right now so the photos will be uploaded when he is not busy which won't be until Sunday or Monday! We thank Daddy for working so hard :) We would also like to tell those interested in the sex, as of right now we are not letting anyone know what the sex is, it will be a surprise!!! Sorry to disappoint!

An Update on Our Family

Hi, everyone! It's me, Amelia Jule. Mommy hasn't had time to upload any photos of us, she is busy going through the house and the shed getting things ready for a big garage sale. If anyone wants info, comment on the post and she will send you some info. Now, down to the update about me. In the last month, I have learned to walk. Mommy calls me a "Drunken Sailor". I get so excited that when I am about to fall I close my eyes and giggle. I also have learned how to blow raspberries at everyone. It is my new calling card. I also like to stand on my sister, pull her hair and push her out of my way a lot, Mommy doesn't like that, but I still do it :). Mommy and daddy feed us good yummy food now, not that mashed up junk, but I still like my bowl of cereal before bed. My favorite thing is to have a bath. I try to drink the water, but again Mommy doesn't like that either, we are learning Mommy doesn't like some of the naughty things we do. My favorite toy is still my dolly from Great Aunt Barb. I also like to watch the new movie Mommy and Daddy got free in the mail, Baby Einstein. I also love to wrestle with my Daddy, he lets us pull his hair, AGAIN mommy tells him that isn't ok, she thinks we will do it to everyone then, she's kind of right :)!!! I will let Baylee talk now, if she says anything about me pulling her bows out, "SHE'S LYING"

Hi, it's me Baylee Joy!! I had to wait for my sister to finally give up the computer. Well folks, I am a walker now! My mommy says I am a danger because I bump my head a lot, but I don't cry. I also learned how to climb up onto the couch, Mommy doesn't like this. I don't know why, I just stand up and jump up and down, she always manages to catch me. Do you see a problem with that?? It's lots of fun. I also like to wave to everyone and just today I finally understand what blowing a kiss means, Mommy has been trying for a month to get us to do that, I thought I would give her a break and get it down. I love to go to the park and go down the slides, however when we go in elevators, I get real scared and cry. Mommy says it is ok, but I am still scared. I like to climb on my sister, she whines about it, so then I get in trouble from Mommy. She does it to me, so what's the big deal, geez! My favorite toy right now is mommy cupboards. I like to empty them out. I have a feeling that is going to end soon, Mommy showed us some things she bought at Target that will lock them away, she is no fun, Daddy seemed excited about these locks too. What fun spoilers they are?? I like to have baths, I don't like it when my parents make me get out. I like to dance to Mommy's iphone, it is so much fun, I shake my head a lot and wave my hands in the air. I also like to raise my hands, when Mommy or Daddy say "So BIG". Mommy says it makes her want to cry because we are getting sooooo big! I kind of like it, I get to run around the house now!!!! Have a great day everyone!

Hi, it is Baby C here! I am still cooking inside Mommy. Tomorrow I will have cooked for a whole 20 weeks so far. I am half way there. Mommy and Daddy get to see me on Thursday morning for a big level 2 ultrasound. I am going to wave to them. They don't want to know if I am a boy or a girl, but folks "I know" he he he! I think Mommy might cave, I know that Daddy wants to know, he tells me all the time. Well, I won't be seeing any of you until Christmas time, Mommy says she hopes, but Daddy will post photos of me after Thursday's ultrasound. Stay happy everyone!

Hi, it's us, Minnie and Daisy! Yes, we are the dogs that live here. We are wondering why our house is invaded by two little girls who like to pull our hair and ride us like horses??? We have a feeling that Mommy is going to have another one. We will be out numbered then, please pray for us!!! :)

Target and Out to Lunch


This is the way we do Target! You can barely see the new balls we purchased for the girls. The each have one in their hands, however they still fought over them as we walked around Target!!!

Baylee is ready for a nap and Amelia is ready to get into the bags!!!

Pretty soon they will not fit together in the front of the cart and we will have one more in tow!!

We went to Ruby Tuesdays with Auntie Alexis. Here is Baylee looking at Auntie Alexis thinking "hey, put the camera down and feed me!"

Amelia clearing all her puffs away!

Finally food! Baylee loves to eat!!

Amelia packing it away!

We feel bad for the waitress after we leave!!
